This western leather vest was entirely built with leather braiding of top quality, full grain, moccasin cowhide - no thread, or any other material, was used on it. All of the seams, edges, back yoke, and pockets were completely constructed with braided leather. The 1/4" wide laces used on it were cut from the same leather that the vest parts were cut from.

​

Over the years, (since 1972) I've custom built hundreds of these vests. On my leather vests home page there are 55+ vests with many pictures of their many features. Folks look them over to decide which featurss are for them, or get ideas to design their own. Each vest that I build ends up being a one of a kind. In regards to colors: I have several brown tones or black to select from.
